With MyNBA Eras in NBA 2K23, there’s no need to wonder “what if”when considering what could have happened in NBA history.
Key elements from NBA’s Greatest have been incorporated into the popular MyNBA mode, now called MyNBA Eras, in NBA 2K23 (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X only). Exclusive to PS5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S, this mode gives players full control of the NBA through four decades of basketball and the freedom to reshape the history of the sport by creating their own stellar alternate universes with new jerseys, never-before-seen rivalries, and the ultimate new dynasties our world has never known.
Eric Benish, NBA Vice President of Development at Visual Concepts, says:
This has been a significant year for MyNBA, and our team is thrilled that fans of this game mode can explore the changes that have been going on for over a decade. MyNBA Eras takes the rich MyNBA experience of yesteryear and integrates it with some of the NBA’s most iconic eras, allowing players to explore countless “What if?”scenarios. in the most authentic way.
